Story
2 years have passed since the events on the Von Braun and Tau Ceti V.
After the Von Braun and Rickenbacker returned to Earth by an unknown individual, both ships were quarantined by Trioptimum forces who swiftly entered the ships and disposed of all alien forces encountered then moved in with science teams to recover the deceased creatures.

All recovered specimens were sent to Semper Fi, a small research facility built within the "Ancient" ruins of an ancient unknown civilization for analysis.

Unknown to the Trioptimum research unit was that the creatures or "Many" as they like to be called were not so dead as they appeared. Rather they had entered a state of hybernation and were only waiting for the right moment to strike.

Three weeks later that moment came and the creatures of the many arose from their sleep and attacked the staff of Semper Fi. Within two hours the staff of Semper Fi were all but slaughtered or assimilated into the Many, and to make matters worse, shortly after the attack began Semper Fi`s security system "Xanatos" initiated quarantine procedures activating the facilities robotic security forces, with orders to shoot anything. Be it Alien or Human.

You yourself being a scientist of the facility were one of the two survivors still alive who had made a mad dash amongst the chaos for one of the armouries near the entrance to the ruins. The only other survivor being your friend from the R&D division, John Grave had made the dash with you only to be cut down by rifle shells upon entering the armoury.

Your only hope of survival now is to reach one of the ships just north of the cargo bay. But that means having to go through most of the base in the progress. Oh well, you only live once.

you are free to make better ones.

I don't for a second claim that the Doom 2 levels I did were great. A great learning experience however. Ancient (the doom 2 version) was my favorite of the bunch however. Whilst I did better looking levels than it, I enjoy that one the most. Hence why it got the remake treatment.

The Doom 2 version of "Ancient" included in the zip was the initial basis for the SS2 version I created many years later. Though the similarities lessened as I added more areas onto it and tried to make it more of a "System Shock" style level whilst based in ancient ruins.

But yes if you don't like my doom 2 levels your more than welcome to go make your own :p.

I've tried out all the fan missions (except for the unfinished ones) and they all work but this one. It crashes to desktop after choosing your classes and skills. Also are there any more fan missions, namely on ttlg? Or are all of them collected here.

Huh, tried it again and it's working this time. I ran ss2 tool recently though so that may have something to do with it.
